/**
 * Implements the driver for the FactoryMethod design pattern example.<p>
 *
 * Intent: <i>Define an interface for creating an object, but let subclasses
 * decide which class to instantiate. Factory Method lets a class defer
 * instantiation to subclasses.</i><p>
 *
 * Participating objects are <code>ButtonCreator</code> and
 * <code>LabelCreator</code> as <i>ConcreteCreator</i>s. Both implement
 * the <code>GUIComponentCreator</code> interface.<p>
 *
 * In this example, the factory method <code>createComponent</code> creates
 * A JComponent (a button and a label, respectively). The <i>anOperation()</i>
 * method <code>showFrame()</code> uses the factory method to show a little
 * GUI. In one case, the created frame contains a button, in the other a
 * simple label.
 *
 * <p><i>This is the Java version.</i><p>
 *
 * Since the <i>anOperation()</i> method requires an implementation, <i>
 * GUIComponentCreator</i> has to be an abstract class (as opposed to an
 * interface). Consequently, all <i>ConcreteCreator</i>s have to be
 * subclasses of that class and cannot belong to a different inheritance
 * hierarchy.
